Review of Mepco Schlenk Engineering College.
Placements: Approximately 75- 80% of students were hired by structural design, contracting, and consulting firms, which was a fairly good placement outcome. The average package remained close to 5.5 LPA, while the highest package reached roughly 10 LPA. Infrastructure and metro projects offered internships, though some were merely site assistants.
Infrastructure: Department labs had dependable testing equipment and easy access to industry-standard software. With pertinent code and references to civil engineering, the library provided strong support. The mess food occasionally felt monotonous, but the hostel rooms were cosy. There was some, but not much, medical and athletic support.
Faculty: Particularly during design and analysis sessions, the faculty provided clear and encouraging explanations of concepts. The majority of the curriculum was updated to reflect current structural trends and was practical. The majority of students passed the moderately challenging, understanding-focused exams without any significant problems.
Other: Mepco Schlenk Engineering College, in the ME Structural Engineering Course, has Taken Admission information.
